Chapter 253: Suffocation
After a few calls, a crisp female voice suddenly sounded:
"Yes! Brother Lu!"
As soon as the words fell, the flower clothes flashed in front of Lu Yuan.
"You're fine." Lu Yuan said in a deep voice.
He wanted to say, "I'm worried about you're gone," but he thought it was unlucky, so he swallowed it.
"The sound seems to have stopped. Brother Lu, can you sense something down?"
Only then did Huashang realize that the voice was indeed gone.
Without the guidance of the voice, Lu Yuan's heart sank slightly.
It was deep enough to be underwater, and he was almost out of breath. If you haven't found it yet, you can only float up to rest and then come down after ventilation.
It's a waste of time, though.
Try sensing it first to see how far away it is. If it's too far, you can only save your life and retreat to the surface before you make plans.
Thinking of this, Lu Yuan closed his eyes in the water and meditated cross-legged into a state of exploration.
As soon as his consciousness was gone, he faintly caught something not very far below emitting energy.
The energy fluctuated in strength and weakness, and it seemed to be unstable.
There's nothing else around, could this power point be what I'm looking for?
Estimate how long you can hold your breath and get there and get back to the surface – as long as it's fast enough, it's no problem.
"Let's go!"
Lu Yuan greeted for a while, and then quickly dived down.
As he was walking, he suddenly felt a surge of extremely low temperature energy from the side in front of him.
The energy was extremely fast, and he immediately dodged sideways.
"Whew!"
A large ice pick about five feet tall grazed past his ear.
As he passed by, a huge blast of energy dispersed the sea water around the icicle, and his cheek was bruised and a little blood flowed out.
Lu Yuan touched the scar. The bloody mouth soon closed.
But he was secretly shocked in his heart:
It's just this wave of qi that has torn apart my Xuan armor and protective qi, what the hell is this!
He didn't know what was attacking, but what he knew was that
I'm no match for that!
"Come in, get out!!"
Lu Yuan roared and rushed to the surface of the water with the flowers.
There was a lot of resistance in the water, and Lu Yuan did not learn the skill of moving quickly in the water, so he could only rely on his brute strength to drain the water.
How can that speed be faster than that of a hunter who lives in the water?
He didn't look back, just rushed forward, and there was a loud sound of breaking water behind him.
Something traveled through the water, and the water burst open at his rapid speed, creating a hollow channel.
The east-west direction merged with the sea water, silent, but soon approached Lu Yuan.
Run!
Lu Yuan only had this one word in his mind.
Hua Shang did not get into Rong Huan, but grabbed his clothes and ran away with him.
As he was flying away, Lu Yuan suddenly felt a bone-chilling chill coming from above his head.
"Click......"
It's the sound of the sea frozen!
He's going to stop me from floating!
Lu Yuan struggled to rush towards the ice.
"Bang!"
He couldn't move faster than he froze, and the top of his head felt like he was hitting a piece of granite that was incredibly hard.
Lu Yuan almost fainted in pain.
The road was impassable, so he quickly swam diagonally to the side.
"Bang!"
Another loud bang.
There's also a very thick layer of ice on the water.
Wherever he swam, it froze.
What's worse is that he hasn't seen the enemy until now!
Unable to go up, Lu Yuan swam to the side again, wanting to go around and then rush out of the water.
But he swam sideways twice and hit the ice wall again.
He suddenly realized that the other party was going to freeze him in an ice box!
Sure enough, his range of motion gradually decreased, and the temperature around him dropped again and again.
By the time he swam down and hit the ice wall, the ice box was fully finished!
Cultivators are not afraid of the cold in nature, but this kind of cold is obviously made of demonic energy, and it can still take the life of a monk.
Lu Yuan turned around and looked behind him, and found that outside the ice box, a fat humanoid monster swam in.
The monster wasn't particularly tall, about half a head taller than an adult, but it was covered in fat lumps.
His head was a gray octopus head, and eight octopus claws full of small holes stretched out from his head, bending and twisting like bearded hair fluttering in the wind.
It turned out to be a mid-fifth-order octopus essence!
If it is on the ground, Lu Yuan is worthy of this demon. But now in the depths of the ocean, the situation immediately becomes critical.
The octopus spirit looked at Lu Yuan, who was trapped in the ice box, and said:
"Hehe, it's hard to have such fresh food coming down, and I'm blessed today!"
"The little broken box is trying to trap me!?"
Lu Yuan pulled out the Silent Demon Sword in the box and slashed hard, but the cold qi penetrated into his bones, his power dropped, and he couldn't exert half of his strength at all.
The octopus spirit smiled, "The old man's ice box can slowly pull the air away. In this way, there is no air and the temperature is low, and human flesh can bring out its own most delicious taste in such a place. Well...... It's so delicious to make sashimi!"
Lu Yuan only felt that the six sides of this ice box were slowly squeezing towards him. What's even more ruthless is that as the space compresses, the air inside is constantly absorbed by the ice wall.
Lu Yuan began to feel dizzy inside.
He knew very well that he was starting to suffocate!
Lu Yuan slashed through the ice again, but the blade only left scratches of different shades on it.
And the release of occult arts, mysteries, etc., all require the consumption of mystical energy. Now that even the air is running out, how can there still be Xuan Qi?
With a few slashes, the air is consumed faster!
He felt that his eyes were getting darker and darker, his heart was beating faster and faster, and his entire neck and eyes were red!
"Hahahaha! It's best to suffocate like this. It's crispy! If it bleeds, the flesh will be a little sour and a little thick."
The octopus spirit said to herself, a sticky saliva in her dark mouth.
He held a sharp short sword in each hand and swung it in front of his eyes, eager to try.
"Mmmm, the first time after suffocation is to bleed, and then cut into thin slices, dip some condiments, hey, fragrant!"
Although she doesn't have to breathe, she can feel the loss of air.
Seeing that Lu Yuan's strength in wielding the long sword was getting smaller and smaller, and her body slowly fell, she was so anxious that she flew around.
"Brother Lu! You're going to hold on! I...... I'm going to break the box!"
But the energy force field emitted by this ice box can also prevent the ghost from penetrating to a certain extent.
No matter how much Huashang pounded the ice, it didn't help.
The air was almost exhausted, and Lu Yuan's divine power was about to fail.
He was lying limply in the box, his whole head blood-red, and his hands were clashing at his throat.
Air!
Even a little!
Hua Shang cried bitterly: "Brother! You...... You don't want to die! I don't want to see anyone close to me die!"
Lu Yuan looked at her with blood-red eyes, squeezed out a smile weakly, and his hands slowly drooped.
"You don't want to die!!" Her heart was almost broken.
The octopus spirit laughed wildly: "Hahahaha! What a pair of lovers who live and die. Well, without air, your husband can't breathe. It tastes delicious when you look at it!"
Air? Breathe?!
At this time, Huashang suddenly remembered something. She immediately stopped her tears and switched to her physical demon form.
Hua Sheng immediately sat down cross-legged and picked up Lu Yuan's head, then took a deep breath and put her hot and chapped lips on Lu Yuan's slightly open lips.
She pinched Lu Yuan's nose, then summoned all her strength and spit out the little yang qi she had accumulated into Lu Yuan's mouth without hesitation.
It turns out that Huashang can switch between the ghost of the imaginary body and the demon of the entity at will.
When she became a ghost, she didn't need to absorb human essence to cultivate. All she had to do was absorb the essence of the sun and the moon.
Ordinary ghosts can't store yang energy, but she's not a pure ghost, but a ghost.
So in the more than eighty years since her death, although the accumulation of yang energy in her body is very small, there is still some good.
At this time, in order to allow Lu Yuan to breathe, she conveyed all the yang energy accumulated in the past eighty years to him.
And in order to achieve a faster effect, she poked out her fragrant tongue, stretched it out to Lu Yuan's throat, and then slowly sent yang qi in.
Yang Qi is the most rare energy for ghost and demon cultivation, and under this spit, her fifty years of cultivation suddenly disappeared.
Huashang's originally petite figure seemed to shrink again, and the whole person collapsed weakly in the ice box.
The octopus spirit continued to look at the scene inside. He groaned, touched his fat belly, and said with a lewd expression:
"Oops! Little lady, kiss me too! Hahahaha! Not really, right? Uncle makes you happy!"
He laughed with a sneer, completely oblivious to the subtle changes in the box.
With the transmission of yang energy, Lu Yuan finally got the opportunity to breathe several times!
His chest rose and fell violently, and the sound of breathing in his throat went from shallow to deep. After coughing twice, Lu Yuan's face gradually returned to normal.
After receiving a full breath, the magic power of "Fire and Water is Invulnerable" is activated again.
He could hold his breath in the water for almost an hour!
Although he was almost dying of dizziness just now, he could see everything Huashang had done for him clearly.
He gently picked up the unconscious flower dress, put his lips to her ear and whispered:
"Can you still be a ghost?"
Huashang understood what he meant.
She didn't answer, but directly turned into a ghost form with all her strength and flew into Lu Yuan's countenance.
Lu Yuan gained breath, and even obtained a part of the Heaven and Earth Xuan Qi purified by the flowers.
It's small, but it's exceptionally pure!
This mysterious qi with ghosts and demons quickly swept through the Lu Yuan meridians.
That demonic aura is nothing, it is what Lu Yuan has been exposed to all year round.
And that ghost qi constantly stimulates the mysterious qi where it passes.
For the first time, these Xuan Qi faced the invading ghost qi from outside, and they became extremely alert in an instant.
They immediately activated their master's defense system, providing them with extremely powerful occult power.
Lu Yuan re-grasped the long sword at this time and stood up in the ice box.
"Huh?? A kiss and get up? Hahaha! Good! I want one like this too! Boy, give her to me, and Lao Tzu won't cut you alive, how about rewarding you?"
"Flower dress is my woman! If you want to die, let's try it!"
Hearing that his savior was humiliated, Lu Yuan's eyes erupted with rage.
The Sword of Silence Demon flowed with multicolored light in an instant. He slashed his sword at the wall of the ice box.
"Little box, break it for me!!"
"Knort!"
With a crisp sound, the ice box was shattered!
